- The trauma team from San Antonio's University Hospital waited almost two hours for the first patient from the school shooting to arrive from Robb Elementary School in Uvalde on Tuesday. KSAT anchor Steve Spriester got a behind-the-scenes tour with the trauma specialists as they recounted what happened that day and when they finally realized that the patients they'd prepared for were never coming.

If the kids got immediate care instead of 40 minutes later, im sure some of them would have reached these wonderful folks. Thank you for all you do.
It has been stated on news programs that calls to 911 stated there were children still alive who were shot. It is thought these children died due to blood loss and autopsies will show if they had help earlier, could they have lived. I cannot imagine the heartbreak those families are going through.
Why did it took them that long 😭 they could have saved more 😭😭😭
@@chocolateandbooks OH MY GOD😭💔
ABSOLUTELY RIGHT ✅️
those cops deserve as much love as the dirt on the bottom of their shoes. the shooter inflicted those wounds but those cops KILLED those children.
Nurses are the backbones of hospitals. They do so much of the heavy lifting and are true heroes.
Remember people who in Work Truama Centers must be very Special People they deal with this Day in and Out .They went too School get payed good Money but too deal with Innocent People like getting Shot is probably something they will Forget. Doctors interview she was crying understandable Thank U for being Good at Your Job
what are doctors
I will say the nurse assistant instead.
And Respirstory Therapist.. breathing is important
@@issasecretsecret7814 people that help you when you're hurt, sick, etc
I’m from Here, in Uvalde, I can’t stop thinking about their last moments. What they saw before passing. There was one kid who survived saying her friend was alive but stopped breathing the longer they waited… it’s so heartbreaking to think about how many more could’ve been saved. The way I haven’t stopped crying and they’re not my own kids or my own families. ☹️😔 We know everyone through everywhere. We all love one another here. It’s heartbreaking. Pure. Heartache. 😔
Oh man! I'm so sad and sorry. :-(
This is so terrible
I am very sorry for the loss to your city and community. We are all feeling your sorrow at such a senseless loss of life. Those children were so beautiful and intelligent and the teachers were so dedicated to them. My heart goes out to you and your city.
I'm sorry. Yes, they aren't talking enough about how more injured children might have been saved if the police had acted.
The thing that brings tears to my eyes is exactly that, the fear in those children in what unfortunatly would become their last moments on earth, what went through their heads and how they were desperate for the help that failed to come to them. If there is a hell i hope the murderer goes there and suffers for real. You dont have the right to take innocent lives just because you cant handle your own. The pain never goes away but i hope it gets a little better for you and the people of Uvalde and PLEASE never forget these children and the two teachers. Bless you.
You should move. PD doesn't care about their citizens
Can you imagine wounded kids bleeding for over an hour dying waiting for coward Texas cops who never saved any kids, 19 cops with rifles and vests waiting for backup, how inhumane and crazy is that Texas better pay these families millions for their intentional negligence.
🤬🤬🤬
And yet Ted Cruz and the rest of his kind pushes a narrative that only one good guy with a gun can solve this plus of course entrance and back door and other irrelevant stuff🍊
None should ever be allowed in law enforcement again in. Most definitely not the police chief.....unbelievable cluster fu--!
MOST police officers are NOT heroes. They are only there AFTER something happens and I feel they take their time so they don’t have to actually confront the suspect but just get there to take a report or say they were there
Yes it's so unbelievable why they waited around for over a hour before going in to rescue those children. I could see the parents trying to run into the school and the cops holding them back and the parents yelling and screaming and saying what are you waiting for go in there. 😳😳😳What the HELL. Also 911 calls were steady coming into the DISPATCHER who they're saying wasn't in contact talking to the chief about what was happening inside the classroom. The children were so brave telling about the killer and the teachers and students that were shot. These cops were not trained right or first time rookies or cowards whatever it was they failed those children .
They are highly professional, once being told about the shooting, sprang into action and have everything ready to accept the shot victims immediately. 👩🏼⚕👨🏼⚕️
Unlike the professional LEOS
Stupid. Grandma didn't die and called 911, "gunman kid" drove away and crashed car, and then much LATER got into a secure school classroom??????????????? 10-year-olds and 8-year-olds in SAME classroom?? No one stopped him anywhere on his very long and nutty journey????? Police didn't take any action????? How stupid are we supposed to be????????????????? Fake doctor says "patients filtered in"???????? No injuries only deaths??? Two dads fake crying over same photo of kid????????? This is so, so stupid. It's a fake story...a psyops. Hmmm...wonder what government might want to take away from little people?????
Sadly only very few were able to made it to the hospital almost everyone died inside the classroom 😭
@@meoct-ow7tu Time will tell. Lots of photos out there of other crisis actors who lived on to play a role in another gig. How about the two different "dads" fake crying over framed photo of same kid?? Seriously, real parents usually don't all have framed and matted photos of their kids. Lucky if one can find a photo somewhere. Crisis actors got their stories all messed up contradicting each other, and completely unbelievable.
@@meoct-ow7tu Locked inside with shooter for over an hour is enough time to bleed dry. 🤔
Surgeons, Doctors, nurses.. they shouldn’t have to be waiting for children, but I’m so thankful for all of them. I think it’s so important to hear from Dr. Liao and her team. Our minds are trying to comprehend what the children went through, and we sometimes forget about the medical staff that has to endure pain and trauma as well. God wrap your loving arms around these beautiful human beings. 🙏🏻
@@RichBuddy they got a teacher who was shot and a little girl shot four times. Your pathetic and could never do what they do. The least you could do is, better! Do better!
@@RichBuddy what in the world are you talking about??
If the world could be as kind as doctors, nurses and surgeon's the world would be a better place.
@@RichBuddy I'm pretty sure honey that children were still transferred to the hospital. Rich is there anything I can do for you? Do you want to talk. I understand we all process trauma differently. I'm here if you'd like to talk to me. Just a loving mom here.
Just hearing the description of injuries found on the little children was horrific. Much gratitude to the doctors and other workers who got 4 children to survive this tragedy.
We all appreciate the doctors and other medical professionals who handled this, they are the frontline people. This is like wartime mass casualties.
Exactly
Prayers for you all
This is what those gun lovers miss, the destruction of small bodies that will never be the same even in survival. An adult shot by those rifles do not recover normal movement. Those weapons destroy tissue that is never coming back. Is that the price for gun freedom? To destroy kids?
Sadly the kids that died that day had to have DNA test for them to be identified that's how bad the wounds were 😭
Heartbreaking, I heard he shot them in the face
God damn that's just absolutely horrific.
Sad how they made the family go home and wait by the phone for a DNA test to confirm their child died. Cause so many were Unidentified
Tells me their heads exploded when hit with the bullets. That's the pictures the Republicans need to show, look what we support. No they show x-rays of fetuses, even by a rapist. They are sick. They are not pro life, they don't care for the post born, just pre born. SAD AND SICK.
😢
"Parts of the body not identifiable". She means Maxillofacial trauma. Children shot in the face multiple times with such extent that you can't identify landmarks of where the nasal and oral cavities are divided or you see visible gray matter. It's the realities of trauma... but seeing it on children is an entirely different story.
Really ?
@@tyroneford8657 as a nursing student, yes it's true
@@tyroneford8657 google then go to images 🙃 don't be scared buddy
@@RichBuddy that comment was unnecessary, heartless, and disrespectful.
@@RichBuddy how do you know they did nothing??? U are ignorant. Try being a medical staff and then you can say false news! These are difficult times and you don’t help one bit. It hard on the Med field to see some of the things that never leave our minds. Yes I’m a nurse of 37 yrs. You are no more than a little troll with nothing better to do!!! Yes I said LITTLE troll, read between the lines RICHIE!
Every politician should be made to look at the bodies so they can hopefully understand, what severe damage is done when shot by this type of assault gun. Thank you to All the Doctors and medical team for saving as many lives as you could.
I disagree with your statement, because it assumes that gun-control is the sole solution to this problem. Are you are that police are not legally required to protect you? Look up Supreme Court cases such as: DeShanney vs Winnebago and Warren vs District of Columbia. The media is pushing narrative that we should give up our guns and trust in government to protect us, when they are not legally bound to do so.
I fully agree that politicians should look at the carnage.
Years ago I required the offender who crippled my son to view a DVD with video of the injuries and aftermath.
The Parole Officer who viewed the after effects of the incident was in tears when he saw what the offender had to view.
The Second Amendment shall never be infringed.
Assault gun? Oh god.
Oh god shut up you damn liberal guns aren’t the issue people are
So much grief - the people who commit these crimes never think beyond their problems
They do not value their own life either . I still have to ask if he'd gotten into drug use. His mother is a druggie
We need gun reform
@@sharonwells9593 come on. Putting blame on his mom. How do you know she is a "druggie"?
What i don’t understand is why not just take yourself out instead of taking out random kids and then yourself?
Oh they do their intentions are to cause as much possible long term suffering bc they want others to feel what they think they feel
These nurses are hero’s. Bigger hero’s than the cowardice police ever were. I can’t believe that they waited so long to actually send help while children spent their last moments in fear and agony. My respect for these nurses is huge. They actually took action quickly to treat the victims unlike the police on-site.
I was going to say the same. These people are the heroes
God love that wonderful trauma team, prepared and serving their patients so beautifully! I wish many more children had lived and been able to come in for care ❤️🙏
Well said 👏
What kind of gun make large large wound
Well they have no choice, they can’t turn people away it’s a hospital
Unfortunately, some of the children bled to death because too much time elapsed.
@cupid, I assume you’re trolling. The type of military grade assault weapon he used shoots large bullets at high velocity (speed). It’s that velocity that makes the bullet start tumbling through the soft tissue. Other bullets, hollow points, are designed to shatter on impact, damaging as much tissue, organs and other tissue as possible. America has the best armor and best equipped mass murderers in the world, thanks to Republican congress members. What they aren’t saying is how many children would have made it who just bled out waiting……….for the police to save them.
God bless every doctor, nurse and the entire staff for all they do to saving people. I myself back in January was flown by life flight to a hospital due to a hit and run accident. I can't thank the trauma staff enough for saving my life. ❤️
I hope your doing better.
Glad you are alive dear! Jesus saves and many times He does that thru other people.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Thank you all! Yes, thee medical staff through God saved my life. I was in a coma for 3 entire months. I was in the hospital 6 months. I got home a week ago.
Despite the added stress, these medical professionals deserve to be appreciated for the hard work they have done.
It’s so gut wrenching to hear these poor babies suffered in their last moments. My kids woke up that May 24th 2022 and told me they didn’t feel like going to school and damn it i said okay they can stay. Listen to your children you never know. May they rest in Gods kingdom and heal the parents suffering. It’s so devastating I cry every night for them.
now we know why they bled out on the floor begging police to come on cell phones. police 15 feet away
there would have been much more being flown in by helicopters if the cops acted immediately.
@@Lynn-ip9sh how do u know were u there then shut the fuk up
Amen .. Horrifying
These people are angels among us. They were there for us in our darkest hour, they were ready, they didnt let us down as the cowards who matters most did. Im not alone when i say we love you for your sacrifice, you really make the world a better place. Thank you!
The Golden hour was blown by bad decisions and indecisions.
I fear regret more than death and would hope that every cop sorted that equation before responding.
My friend, you will always have regrets at the end of your life. If someone tells you that they have lived their life and regret nothing, then they are missing something uniquely human.
"I hope it doesnt happen again but like it will..." 🥺
I came down to see if anyone else caught that. So heartbreaking to see even medical professionals feeling hopeless when it comes to finding change to prevent this. As a nation we know how to head in the right direction, it's just sad we cannot create change due to a loud minority of people.
We are so fortunate to have such dedicated professionals on our trauma team. Congratulations on one of your kiddos being well enough to be discharged! I do want to be sure to compliment Steve Spriester on his sensitivity and professionalism in this piece. He is informative without being intrusive. His step by step with the surgeon provided a picture of what the patients experienced as they arrived as well as showing the real people there to comfort and care for them. Well done.
The team is commended for their work. The surgeon in one of interviews was trying her best to hold it together.💜
If only the police were as respectable and skilled as this hospital staff, maybe then more children would have made it.
Being there while kids are being gunned down and cops are standing around doing nothing would be traumatizing for anyone to see, let alone a parent of a child that's in the school seeing that 😢
If the police officers at Uvalde didn't want to change that door, why didn't they give their guns to the Fathers and mothers who would have gone in without hesitation.
@@larrywright1589 -They were there in 5 minutes. The door was steel and opened outward. They did not have the tool to cut it open or they would have gotten in sooner. Border patrol arrived much later and they were able to finally get in and kill the murderer.
@@larrywright1589 Facts
I am sure those kids very much wanted to make it to your hospital. The horrific wounds doctor described must be very painful. These kids were in great pain during the last minutes of their lives. They must wonder where are the heroes that supposed to come and save them? They were in tears calling out their parents who also did not show up. They died alone in that classroom
From sickness to trauma! Thank you Health Care workers!!!!
What a Wonderful Dr. and the Team Members simply not able to describe how professional and REAL they are.
thank you to all these amazing trauma experts. trauma specialists saved my dad’s life & im forever greatful for people who have passion for their job in the medical field.
Thank you all for being there waiting for these children to arrive for help
This is so heartbreaking. Bless all your hearts. You can tell, these medical staffs are hurting so much.
I’m in hospital right now and I have so much respect and admiration for the nursing staff that have been taking care of me so wonderfully and kindly. I can’t imagine how it must feel for them to have to see these seriously injured children wheeled into hospital hanging on for dear life and not knowing if they’re going to be able to save them all. Massive love and respect to you all from Australia. You guys are angels. ❤️
Very special thank you to the trauma team. True heroes!!!
Yes Totally AGREE
God bless that whole trauma team & anyone who helped those children🙏🏼
Thankful for the nurses and doctors as well as all the first responders for trying their best as always!
What an amazing group of humans❤️...thank you....
Nurses are so emotionally and mentally strong. You are my heros, ALL of you. And thank you so much. You are gods gift. I wish I could do more for you. ❤️
God bless these children and their parents, the nurses, doctors, and social workers ♥️🙏🏼
I bow down to all our doctors and nurses! 🙏 thank you !!
Not health professional but your Totally Right nobody Thanks Them Should be Appreciated Aldo
Thank you doctors and nurses!
Yes Thanks yes it's There Job but Without Them Some LIVES Would Lost
These medical staff are human heroes and very professional 🙏❤
We are so grateful to you, Dr. Liao, and all of your trauma team, and the trauma teams everywhere. We wish you did not have to treat victims of school massacres. What is with our country?
Thank you Trama team 🙏
This incident was like the cherry on top. It’s like, ok enough is enough. This rocked the nation. Rest in Power every soul that’s no longer here with us❤️🌺
Heartbreaking. My heart goes out to the victims and their families. No one should have to lose their child like this.
So so sorry this happened. Thank you all. For what you do and God bless all the families.
thank you everyone at University Hospital 🙏🏼
Im in awe of responders and trauma teams, what a special breed of humans. So many people ready to try and undo what one nasty person caused. What’s she says “I hope this doesn’t happen again, but I feel like it will”. Sad truth
Sorry you had to go through something like that. But I'm glad you were prepared. I'm so sorry that they didn't make it. Hope you are still taking good care of yourself in a situation like this.
@@RichBuddy you are the one who doesn't understand what happened. Yes it was on the news she did treat 4of the children and some served. But do you realize that there could have been more servers if they would have kept him talking and went through the window. Your comments where off track. Look at the footage. Many windows that they could have gone through. This is just as much there fault as the shouters
I am so utterly sorry for this horrid, tragic story. Families I'm so sorry.
TWO HOURS to get the first patients. Absolutely disgraceful! Many more would probably have made it, if they weren't allowed to bleed out due to waiting so long for help!
😡😢
"I hope it'll never happen again but I know it will"
its too sad people r disappointed and everyone thinks it will reoccur
Unfortunately it will 😓
Every time I watch these news reports about these poor children and teachers I cry man way too soon
I feel angry man, I'm not even from USA, I'm latino from Argentina and some schools are not even locked but we know we won't have a problem like this, yes there are instances when teens fight or carry some knifes in schools that are close to bad neighborhoods but they are stopped immediately but a rifle in the hands of a monster and cops doing nothing and stopping parents trying to do what they as cops should do letting children bleed out is soooo horrifying
God bless this wonderful medical team
These precious children are not my children yet I can only imagine their parents 💔 emotions and makes me cry.
Absolute professionals....all the love to them
When I was bleeding out from a accident. A team was waiting for me to arrive.They quickly got me stable and rushed me to surgery. That day will stick with me forever,it happens so fast it looks fake.
My son was shot 8 times. Quick response and the trauma team saved him. Miracle.
@spirals 73 Yeah there incredible deserve more credit.
Bless these amazing people who put themselves on the frontline for us and our loved ones. It truly takes a special kind of soul to be so brave and astute and miraculous. I wish the cops were more like these doctors and nurses. “I hope it doesn’t happen again, but I feel like it will.” 😔😔😔😔
Thank you trauma team! You are angels. 💖
sending them love ❤️
I think the police should go to prison for standing outside the school after locking the shooter in a classroom with children bleeding out for 2 hours before doing anything
Thank u for your service
We Honor You for Saving Their Lives and for everything you do every day ♥️🙏🏼✝️
Just terrible.....how the cops handled everything.. bad training in Uvalde for cops
That was absolutely NOT how they were trained to respond.
Your right. Bad training.
But what’s even worse? Not one of them had a natural instinct, to protect. You can’t tell me that they were afraid of getting reprimanded if they went against protocol? I’d bet everything that that would of been overlooked if someone went in.
I can also guarantee that every single soulless cop on site that day, gets beat up from their gf/wives on a daily.
I Agree 💯 they could have saved some LIVES by time they got THERE
@@therealwilfreddierkes9980 I agree with you, To an extent, I blame the higher ups telling the swat team right outside the classroom to not go in, but at the same time if you're a police officer and are hearing executions going on right a few feet from you, well yeah you should go in regardless of the outcome. Buy Im a keyboard warrior so I honestly cant say What I would do in that situation, given enough time id say id go in, but in that split second, Id most likely second guess everything because im not trained or ever been close to being in that situation.
They had great training, they were trained back in March how to identify and deal with such a situation.
The problem is and I hope everyone understands this, the Supreme Court has already stated that cops DO NOT have to risk their lives to help anyone, not you or those babies.
The parents were even asking yhe cops to given them their guns and let them go in and deal with the situation.
Plus yes the Cops were cowardly.
I love this Doctor.
This Doctor Rocks very Compassionate Woman that's Probably why She's Good at Job
To all the Doctors and Medical Professionals , you are Angels and may the Almighty God bless you always.
Thank you for everything you do.
You are Healing Angels
Please spread this around.
Many of these injuries were survivable if treated quickly. But unfortunately the police felt their lives are more preciouses than the lives of children. So they let the kids with survivable injuries bleed out.
Heartbreaking truth
Loved how the doctors and nurses were more brave and prepared than the police! Thank God for these people 🙏🏾🙏🏾💔💔
Praying for these caregivers…
These high power assault weapons create this type of destruction. They shouldn’t be in the hands of an 18 year old. Even cops are afraid to Enter a room with these types of weapons.
ANOTHER PANCAKE IDIOT this are not.assault weapons..they.are.rifles.the.word.assault.is.over.use..one.pull.of the trigger one bullet switch too full auto 30 RD s or less depending on.mag or drum.fed.
What an awful thing the shooter has done.
sometimes i think hell shouldn't exist if it does. But then people like this make me hope there is a hell. And for those who feel a need to water down his violence and not see it for what it is they are idiots too.
The NRA cause that, they put two weapons of mass destruction in an 18 year old crazy gentleman hands.
What an awful thing libs have done. Faking a mass shooting just to push control laws?! These "doctors" didn't see any kids because they went back to their hotel rooms!
evil you mean just like abortions are evil as well
well he needed to try out them new assault rifles they still had that new gun smell I mean who doesn't want to try out their new guns they shouldn't of killed that guy he was just breaking in his assault rifles
Thank you doctors and nurses cared for kids god bless them
My Condolences to the victims and their families.
They really are heros. My grandma, husband, and I all got covid.I was vaccinated but still very sick but was the only one who could function. I was nurse, maid, cook, etc. I could see them get sicker and sicker and I would hide and cry all day. Working so hard and watching your people get sicker breaks your heart and I wasn’t trained for all that so it hit me hard. I had to send them both to hospital on the same day and both unfortunately didn’t come back home. I cry and cry because I couldn’t save them so I can’t imagine how these heros feel when they can’t save people over and over again.
I'm so sorry 😔🤍🥀 Sending you and your family much love 🤍🤍🤍
This woman said it can take about 5 minutes to bleed out and die in another interview.
To think some of these kids were holding on for their lives while bleeding out, and police stood outside to do nothing. Just horribly tragic and nothing but pain from all this
Praying for them!
So sad to hear all this , I’m sorry for all the children and the two teachers that died, my heart breaks for them, Rest In Peace little angels😓😞🙏
Bless all healthcare workers. Nurses rock!
Amen not a health Worker but I Understand ok worked in Hospital I Get It Ok 11yrs in hospital Security

Thank you medical staff for all you do 🤍.

God bless those nurses and team who helped them.
Hearing them say those words hurt.
One question in my head would be ...if help arrived sooner could my child of survived
~ Ted is a significant NRA beneficiary.
~ Ted fled to Mexico during a statewide blackout during an ice storm.
246 people died.
~ Ted’s daughters are in private school.
~ Ted was born in Canada and has dual citizenship.
~ Ted rides the fence of privilege and politics for his personal gain.
But at the end of the day. He still can get touched, he is not special nor his family. That is what he needs to realize
Ted Cruz did everything within his power as a U.S Senator during the winter storm of last year. This was a state matter for the State government to handle.

My constant thought, the thought keeping from breathing is this,
How many children died waiting for a hero?
How many could have been saved in the Golden Hour?
THIS TEAM WOULD HAVE SAVED THEM ALL.....BUT THEY HAD COPS AS COWARDS LOSING MANY MANY LIVES!! 😟😕😔😦😖😖😪😪
Can you imagine how many of those poor babies probably couldn’t even have an open casket because they were so badly disfigured or even gone? may they all rest in paradise.
One couldn’t keep from smiling , must be the shock .
My kids will be home schooled The Level of Hate in this Country is Ridiculous! RIP LIL ONES 😭
God bless the doctors and nurses who cared for the children and plead the blood of Jesus on the wounds of the children and I pronounce quick healing on them in Jesus name
Wow !speechless!!!!
so pinful to see hear.. Feel bad... very bad.....feel pain people and families who come through all this.....
